Chapter 137: Absorbing External Forces
"Maybe the demon wolf was sleeping and didn't notice us at all. Zhang Xiaodong made a guess.
Lin Xu and the others held weapons in their hands, took precautions, and quietly went around behind the tree to take a look, and sure enough, they saw a demon wolf lying on the ground and sleeping. This proves that Zhang Xiaodong's guess just now is completely correct.
After Zhang Xiaodong knew that it was indeed a demon wolf, he immediately hid away. Because he doesn't know martial arts, he can't help Lin Xu and the others, let alone deal with the demon wolf. He just wanted to hide in the distance and watch Lin Xu and the others fight against the demon wolf.
The size of that demon wolf was very huge, larger than the demon wolves that Lin Xu had seen in the forest before, it might be a demon wolf of the fourth order or above, and its attack power could be described as very strong. Lin Xu and the others had to deal with it carefully.
Now Lin Xuan and the others were still five or six feet away from the demon wolf, but they could still clearly hear the snoring sound of the demon wolf. As it exhales and breathes in regularly, its swollen belly also expands and contracts.
Judging from the demon wolf's swollen belly, Lin Xuan estimated that it had just caught its prey and had a full meal before falling asleep comfortably.
Lin Xu and Zhou Mengfeng were holding long swords in their hands, Leopard Print was holding his most commonly used fange, Wang Lung was holding a round thick iron rod, and Li Shiwei was carrying a spear.
Everyone quietly walked towards the demon wolf together. Everyone's footsteps were very light, and they barely made any sound, so as not to wake up the demon wolf. At the same time, they are also ready to deal with the attack of the demon wolf when it suddenly wakes up.
Lin Xuan quietly raised his right hand and made a gesture towards his companions, and everyone immediately dispersed, forming a tendency to outflank the demon wolf from a distance, and then continued to walk forward, slowly narrowing the encirclement of the demon wolf.
Lin Xu and the others were getting closer and closer to the demon wolf, but the demon wolf didn't seem to notice it at all, he was still sleeping and didn't even move. This was a big surprise to Lin Xu.
Because in Lin Xu's impression, let alone this kind of high-level demonic beast, even ordinary beasts are very clever and vigilant. Often, before humans discover them, they are already one step ahead of them.
The situation that Lin Xu encountered now is indeed a bit abnormal. He had to be more careful and on higher alert.
"Could it be that the demon wolf is pretending to be asleep so that when we get closer to it, it will suddenly jump up and attack us?" Lin Xuan thought to himself.
If that's the case, it's too dangerous. After all, the demon wolf is so ferocious, the four wolf claws are round and thick, and they are very sharp, no matter who is attacked by it suddenly, they must be injured, and they may even lose their lives.
After Lin Xuan thought of this, he felt that he couldn't move forward any more. He immediately reminded everyone and said in a loud voice: "Everyone stop first, that demon wolf may be pretending to be asleep, and after luring us closer, there will be another surprise attack." Let me try it first!"
After listening to Lin Xu's words, although they felt half-convinced and unlikely, they still followed Lin Xu's words, and stopped one after another, not daring to walk towards the demon wolf again.
In any case, they strictly followed Lin Xu's orders, and there was absolutely no reason to disobey them.
After Lin Xuan stopped everyone, he immediately encouraged Zhenyuan, waved the blue ice sword in his hand, and slashed towards the demon wolf.
"Blue Ice Slash!"
A sharp blue sword light immediately emanated from Lin Xu's blue ice sword, and flew straight towards the demon wolf.
Just when Lin Xu's sword light was about to hit the demon wolf, I saw that the demon wolf suddenly opened its eyes, woke up, and turned over and stood up very agilely, opened its mouth, and let out an incomparably powerful wind blade with a snort!
"Dang!" A sound sounded, Lin Xu's sword light and the demon wolf's wind blade collided in the air, emitting a burst of flashes of light, canceling each other out.
At this moment, Lin Xuan finally saw clearly. This is a four-star demon wolf, wind attribute. The Wind Blade is its most powerful attack skill.
"This demon wolf was really pretending to be asleep just now, it has already noticed us, everyone hurry up, don't be hit by its wind blade. Lin Xuan shouted loudly in a hurry, reminding his companions.
"This brute is cunning enough. If it weren't for the big brother's wit, we would have really fallen for it. Wang Lung said as he swung the thick iron rod in his hand and struck the demon wolf in the back fiercely.
Leopard print was not far behind, the mace in his hand whirred, and bravely launched an attack on the demon wolf. It's just that the part where it attacks the demon wolf is different from that of Wang Long. Wang Lung beats the back of the demon wolf, and he beats the two hind paws of the demon wolf.
Zhou Mengfeng is a woman, but she is also extremely bold and calm. She jumped to her feet, wielding her long sword, and struck at the wolf's abdomen from the right side. If the demon wolf was really stabbed by her sword, it would have to have a big hole in its stomach.
Li Shiwei and Lin Xu launched a frontal attack on the demon wolf. The spear in his hand was filled with seventy percent true qi, and the head of the spear made of steel stabbed at the huge wolf's head.
Lin Xuan and the other five people attacked the demon wolf from different directions, which could be described as fierce and ferocious, but the demon wolf did not seem to have any fear. It's still desperately fighting back. The two front paws are against the leopard-patterned mace, a pair of back paws are against Wang Long's thick iron rod, and the wolf's tail is as flexible as the dust in the hands of a Taoist priest, blocking Zhou Mengfeng's long sword, so that Zhou Mengfeng does not dare to attack too close.
As for Li Shiwei's spear, it was bitten by the demon wolf's mouth. He pulled it out with all his might, trying to pull the spear head out of the wolf's mouth, but the mosquito did not move and could not pull it out.
But fortunately, Lin Xu's help. Lin Xuan wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to test the power of the primary and intermediate Wan Mian palms that he had just cultivated, and whether they were of actual combat value, so he put away the blue ice sword, transported his true qi, gathered it on his palms, and hit the wolf's head.
"Bang bang!"
The demon wolf ate Lin Xu's two palms one after another, the wolf's head turned to the side, and he quickly opened his mouth, so that Li Shiwei could get out. Lin Xuan took the opportunity to attack, and kept slapping at the demon wolf, causing the demon wolf to retreat one after another, embarrassed, seeing that he only had the ability to parry, and he had no power to fight back.
At this time, Lin Xuan felt another change in his dantian. Taking advantage of the fact that Zhou Mengfeng, Leopard Print and the others were blocking the demon wolf, he hurriedly took the time to look inside the dantian and found that there was a trace of pale red air mass in the dantian. Unlike Lin Xu's original blue true qi, it was definitely not his true qi that was gathered.
Lin Xuan thought that in the process of every battle he had fought before, there would be some air masses in the dantian, as if they were transformed by external energy. Now fighting with the demon wolf, it is actually the same again. He wanted to figure out this strange angle.
Lin Xuan used the Wanmian palm technique, and continued to slap at the demon wolf, one by one palm prints with Lin Xu's anger and strength, and quickly hit the demon wolf.
In this process, due to the reaction, Lin Xuan will naturally be resisted by the demon wolf. He found that it was in this kind of mutual confrontation that some pale red air masses were constantly transmitted to him from the direction of the demon wolf, and they were sucked into his dantian to form the pale red air mass he had just seen.
In this way, Lin Xuan finally understood what was going on with those strange air masses. It turned out that he was inadvertently sucked over, and then entered the dantian. But after these energies entered the dantian, they could not be used by Lin Xu. Because it is different in nature, it must be refined by his luck before it can be transformed into a true yuan qi that is useful to him.
Lin Xuan thought that the energy of a demon wolf was often greater than the energy of a person. If he could absorb all of the demon wolf's energy, even if he could get most of it, it would be of great benefit to his cultivation.
However, although Lin Xu's idea is very beautiful, it is extremely difficult or impossible to implement it. He tried to use his mind to absorb more of the demon wolf's energy, but failed.
Lin Xuan and his partners attacked the demon wolf while thinking about how to get more energy from the other party, which was really a bit of a dual-minded meaning. After many experiments, Lin Xuan found that if he wanted to achieve this goal, he could not only use his mind, but also cooperate with his true qi to implement the plan as he wished, so that the energy of the demon wolf could be absorbed by himself faster and more.
Lin Xuan was secretly happy in his heart, and immediately sent out more of his true qi, directly fusing it into those pale red air masses, and then used his mind to firmly control them, preventing them from getting out of control.
As the battle between Lin Xuan and the demon wolf became more and more intense, the pale red air mass was also changing rapidly. It had to get bigger and bigger, like an inflated ball, rapidly expanding. Lin Xu was very happy about this and would not worry at all.
Because the larger this reddish air mass, the more energy he absorbed from the demon wolf, which was indeed a good thing.
As the energy of the pale red air mass increased, the speed of moving in the dantian became faster and faster, as if it wanted to break through the dantian and explode out. Of course, Lin Xuan would not let it rush out easily, and firmly controlled it with his mind, while wrapping it with his own dark blue ice true qi, making it gradually become quiet, and it would no longer move around.
Lin Xuan then refined the large pale red air mass according to the Blue Ice Heavenly Sword Decision. I saw that under the action of the cold true qi, the pale red air mass changed from large to small, and finally disappeared, completely melting into the dark blue true qi.
Lin Xuan let out a long sigh of relief, collected all his true qi into the dantian, and found that his true qi had indeed become more abundant than before. He was overjoyed and couldn't help but smile on his face.
With such sufficient true qi and energy, Lin Xuan felt that not to mention that it was just a demon wolf in front of him, even if he encountered a swordsman whose cultivation was higher than his own, he would have enough confidence to face it bravely and fearlessly.
